    Hi all, I would like to buy a ACER 5002WLMi but I my router only supports channel A wireless. I can replace the original card with an A/B/G but my concern is that if I going to be able to have all 3 channels available at the same time.
    If my understanding is correct, the mini-PCI wireless card has 2 connectors, 1 for the B/G channels and 1 for the A channel. Is this correct? Is it possible to use the same antenna for the 2 frequencies, or I'll have to use another antenna for the A channel?
    Can someone tell me a little more about having all the 3 channels working with antenna on this model?
    Thanks
